    I leave mine in the jar until it won't hold any more than I take it to the bank

    I roll mine usually once a month--we end up with a ton of change!

    Usually until the container I am putting it in is full (and right now that is one of those kids' banks shaped like a giant crayon LOL)

    Ha ha - here in Canada, with one- and two-dollar coins, it adds up pretty fast! I roll it every time it's worth it. I'm not going to bother if there's only a roll of pennies, but once our jar is half full, that's worth wrapping. Might as well earn some interest on it.

    When the container is full, or when I have enough to roll, because I love couting the quarters or dimes. I leave pennies for a long time because I hate rolling them.

    I save mine until I reach $50.00, then bank it into my Emergency Fund
